Ryan became the Light of the West for a while.

When he led his team to victory at Conseco Arena, fans of all Western teams raised their eyebrows.

What a bullshit West team burial place, what a few dogs a few days of the West killers.

Now it's a joke!

And even if Ryan wins, he even let Bird say "He is already the best off-ball scorer in this league."

Xiti "was recognized by Byrd", which is equivalent to subduing the villain leader.

As soon as the fans in the West were happy, they all voted for Ryan with free tickets in their hands.

At this time, Reebok and Wesley also began to join forces to hype up a concept:

"Ryan is the first player in NBA history to score 39 points without dribbling!"

Truth be told, while scoring 39 points is indeed commendable, it is also the second-highest score of Ryan's career.

But looking at the entire history of the NBA, 39 points in a single game is far from amazing, let alone an honor.

But once you add a "no dribble" condition in front of 39 points.

A new historical record was created in an instant!

Just a casual customization made Ryan's 39 points so high.

Ryan called Reebok's propaganda department a strong learner.

Nike's series of stunts to praise James have all been finished by you!

In addition to scoring 39 points without dribbling, Ryan's exaggerated stats in this game also have a 72% shooting rate comparable to that inside!

All these accolades have made Ryan's name appear on television and in newspapers non-stop.

This subtly has a proximate effect on the fan base.

It gives fans a feeling of "Ryan is ridiculously strong".

The so-called proximity effect refers to the fact that people tend to be more impressed by recent events.

For example, after the old ruffian brushes up on the latest edge rubbing video, he will instantly forget what the previous edge female anchor looked like.

It's the same with basketball, in fact, Ryan just won a normal regular season.

But because this is still a fresh record, it gives fans the illusion that "Ryan has been so good all the time", making everyone feel as if Ryan is so good in every game.

So, under the influence of this game, Ryan finally managed to get 220,000 votes, narrowly beating Carter's 212,000 votes, and became the 2004 NBA All-Star vote king!

North American fans suddenly discovered that the mysterious Eastern Power was only a small group last season.

This season, people really realize the power of the mysterious East!

Yao Ming only had 120,000 votes last season, and Ryan directly did 220,000 this season!

Grant. The first rookie All-Star Ticket King after Hill is officially born!

Reebok also took the opportunity to hurriedly launch a series of all-star color sneakers, and the North American market may usher in a new round of zero-yuan shopping boom!

The Nike team must now recognize the fact that Ryan is no longer on the same track as the other rookies!

Now, the media take Ryan and Kobe, and Maddie Be, and Reggie. Miller, Duncan and other players are comparing.

No one cares about the question of "who is stronger, Ryan or James" anymore.

His fame has gone far beyond being a rookie.

Nike can only try to increase James' exposure now and let him catch up with Ryan a little bit in popularity.

And the most effective way to increase visibility right now is to start with the rookie MVP!

In mid-February, the '04 NBA All-Star Weekend officially began in Los Angeles.

Because Ryan is going to play the main game, he publicly stated before the game that he will not play more than 10 minutes in the rookie game.

Ryan actually didn't want to give up the rookie game MVP to James, but Wesley said:

"We're just trying to create a feeling that we're no longer disdainful of rookie games!

This will widen the gap between the other rookies! ”

Although he regretted the rookie game MVP, Wesley did have a point.

It seems that Ajan can only be cheaper.

Before the game, Ajan also swore to pat his chest: "I will definitely win the MVP of the rookie game and dedicate it to my hometown Cleveland!" ”

Result after the end of the game.

"Let's congratulate the 2004 Rookie Game MVP, Amare Brown. Stoudemire! ”

James was silent, Anthony was silent, and Ryan, who had only played 8 minutes, was silent.

It's not that Lao Tzu didn't rob you anymore, you can't grasp it!

You two go to the circus and be clowns, really, stop playing basketball!

Moreover, under the wise leadership of Ajan and Angua, the first-grader was directly slaughtered by the second-grade by 24 points!

After the game, Ajan, who lost the MVP of the rookie game, cried and laughed:

"You know, we're just enjoying the show.

I dunked a lot of balls with Melon today, and bringing joy to the crowd was my biggest goal in the rookie game.

Winning? That's not in my plans. ”

Reporter:???

Geneva, are you amnesiac or am I amnesia?

Didn't you say before the game that you were going to dedicate a rookie MVP to Cleveland?

Now it's the biggest goal to bring happiness to the audience?

You're quite flexible!

Ryan said that Mr. Reporter, don't worry, he will tell you next season that he is going to participate in the slam dunk contest~

Don't talk about the slam dunk contest, give him a microphone, he can let the Heat directly win seven championships!

Nike was also not able to be rectified, I thought that if Ryan didn't play much, the MVP of the rookie game would be something to hold in his hand.

As a result of this.

You never know what James can surprise you!

James lost out on the All-Star MVP, which made him miss out on not just a personal accolade, but an opportunity to catch up with Ryan in fame.

Originally, the gap between the two people was very big now, who knew that at this time, Ryan actually hung up a fifth gear, and once again opened the distance between him and James with one foot of the accelerator!

Because

Ryan and O'Neal jointly lifted the All-Star MVP trophy!

Today's All-Star Game, everyone was very friendly.

All kinds of dunks are so hilarious.

And Maddie's self-tossing and self-dunking pushed the atmosphere of the dunk duel to a climax.

Seeing this, Ryan also decided to start implementing his plan!

So, he first staged a dunk in the fast break, and once changed hands to dunk under his back and crotch.

Then he jumped from the free throw line and smashed the basketball into the basket.

These two dunks have already made the fans completely boil.

However, Ryan still has a big move to press the bottom of the box!

In order to quickly increase his popularity, Ryan prepared this year's All-Star as a slam dunk contest.

Why not just participate in the slam dunk contest? Because James didn't attend.

Ryan didn't find it interesting not to beat James.

So, I decided to show off at the All-Star Game.

In addition to that, Wesley and the Reebok team had a plan, one that would make Ryan go down in history.

And this plan must be realized at the All-Star Game.

In the seventh minute of the fourth quarter, Ryan had another chance to break fast.

Both Kidd and Maddy, who were chasing defense, slowed down and didn't want to stop Ryan from attacking the frame.

Fans all over the world are also full of anticipation, Ryan has already given too many exquisite dunks today, and they are looking forward to Ryan's next dunk action, just like they are looking forward to the fugitive princess who is about to push the door open.

Ryan struck the basket from the diagonal side at 45°, and instead of sprinting at full speed, it was as if something was brewing.

By the time Ryan jumped, the whole world was stupid.

I saw that Ryan's body was like a spinning top, after turning 360° in the air. It still hasn't stopped!

Instead, it went round again!

Ryan spun 720° in the air and smashed the ball into the basket with both hands!

At that moment, the whole Staples was silent for a second. Even the stars on the field opened their mouths wide one by one.

"720° turn and dunk in the air! My God! Ryan: He actually completed a legendary dunk action!

OMG!

Is there any anti-gravity black technology in Reebok's soles? How is this possible!

This should be the first 720° dunk in actual combat in basketball history! ”

That's right, the first actual 720° dunk in basketball history.

That's what Wesley and the Reebok team want Ryan to leave behind on the All-Star Field!

They will never waste the opportunity of the All-Star to expand their fame!

Yao Ming was tepid in the All-Star Game, there was no way, after all, Da Yao is a pragmatic player.

But Ryan is different, under the eyes of the whole world, he must leave something behind!

This dunk Ryan has also practiced for a while, and it is really difficult.

After all, even for gymnasts or figure skaters, a 720-degree turn in the air is not an easy move, let alone a basketball player.

But as long as the physical fitness is perverted enough, there is no difficulty that cannot be overcome.

You don't see that Brother Zui in the future has staged a 720° violent buckle on the training ground, although he couldn't get it, but the action of turning 720° in the air was done.

You know, Brother Zui just practiced casually a few times and started recording videos. If you practice more, you will definitely be able to succeed.

And because Ryan deliberately wanted to accomplish this feat, he practiced seriously for a while.

In this way, Ryan completed the all-time dunk in the game!

It's a classic that's like Carter's Death Clasp and Duncan's windmill on the spot, and will never be erased!

Last season, although Yao Ming was also an All-Star starter, he just played soy sauce in the All-Star Game.

And this year, Ryan, the all-star ticket king, is playing for real!

He brought a little shock from the East to North American fans who had never seen the world at the All-Star Game!

Without a doubt, Ryan's 720° dunk became the most memorable image of the night.

Everyone else's dunk, the fans will forget about it the next day.

But this 720° dunk will be talked about a lot even decades later!

After this dunk, the Western team also won the game smoothly.

O'Neal had 24 points and 11 rebounds in the game, and he was still the host, so he would naturally be the MVP of the All-Star Game.

But Stern felt that Ryan's dunk was too much, and it would be a loss for the league if he didn't increase his publicity efforts.

What's more, Ryan's 20 points and 8 rebounds are not bad.

So in the end, Stern decided to let Ryan and the Sharks lift the All-Star MVP trophy together!

In this way, in addition to the first actual 720° dunk in history, Ryan also became the first player in history to win the All-Star MVP in his rookie season!

Seeing O'Neal and Ryan sweetly lifting the trophy together, Kobe Bryant on the side actually felt a little sour!

Oh, I don't care about Shaq, I don't care about him at all, he can live with whoever he likes!

You can be sweeter a little more, I'm okay!

The All-Star Game ended in a lively atmosphere, with newspapers around the world reporting the incredible 720° dunk.

On the Internet, the video of Ryan's dunk is also high.

Reebok's strategy was a huge success, and with this All-Star, Ryan's popularity can be said to be completely comparable to that of a superstar!

Nike and James got nothing again, and it can be said that the crotch pull is quite stable.

After the end of the all-star, the stars who have finished the major shows have also started the peak period of signing new endorsement contracts.

Ryan is no exception.

Take advantage of the high traffic to monetize more, and fools know this truth.

Hummer approached Ryan and hoped that Ryan could be their brand ambassador.

After all, Ryan's tough style and Hummer's tough appearance are very compatible.

Ryan is and Leon. Ross went to negotiate the contract together, and at first, the Hummer representative was very polite. But when Ryan. When Ross made a bid of 15 million, the Hummer representative was stunned:

"We're very eager for your customers to be brand ambassadors, but .

LeBron is only $5 million! ”

The Hummer wave was riding a donkey to find a horse, and at the same time looking for Ryan and James. If Ryan can't talk here, he hurries to find James' spare tire.

The 5 million for the spare tire has been negotiated, and on this basis, Hummer should be able to win 8 million to 10 million if he looks for Lane.

Where to know Leon. Ross is 1500!

Faced with the embarrassment of the Hummer representatives, Leon. Rose just smiled contemptuously:

"Okay, then you guys go and ask LeBron."

He didn't even think about negotiating!

After simply leaving this game, he was ready to leave directly with Ryan.

At this moment, the Hummer representative stood up:

"Mr. Leon, make a contract!"

Leon. Rose knew that he didn't need to negotiate at all, because Ryan himself was the biggest bargaining chip!

They would rather talk about signing Ryan for 15 million than choose James for 5 million!

I'd rather wait for the male god's love to answer and ignore it, and not lick the dog's second back!

On the other hand, after the James team heard that the 5 million offer was rejected, they thought it was too high.

As a result, the next day, when James saw the news, he almost fainted on the training ground;

"15 million contracts! Ryan has officially become the brand ambassador of Hummer! ”

Jim:???

Rejected my 5 million, and as a result, you went to sign Ryan's 15 million?

This is simply spitting in Lao Tzu's face!

Because the subtext of Hummer's operation is: "I'd rather choose the expensive one than the bad one!" ”

It can be seen that after this wave of All-Stars, the gap between Ryan and James has been immeasurable.

This season's regular season is almost over, and James and Nike are losing all the games!

Now, their only last straw is really the playoffs!

If you can play well in the playoffs, then at least you can close the gap!

Ryan is in the Wild West and will definitely be bloodied when he plays in the playoffs.

At that time, if Ajan can play a second round, wouldn't it be a clear stream?

Well, Team Nike thinks James is playing well in the playoffs.

They never thought that in the weak East, James actually had the possibility of not making the playoffs!

Nike didn't know that James still had room to fall!

Unexpectedly, Ryan's first year in the playoffs would be incomparably legendary.

Today's 11,000 words are just the first step in the long march, and we will try to update as much as possible in the future! The conscience is old, kneel and beg for a monthly pass! Thank you!
